The University Grants Commission (UGC) in collaboration with Ed.CIL (India) Ltd. and Planet E-Com Solutions have developed the portal.
The Supreme Court, in its judgment dated May 8, 2009, while expressing great concern on the increasing incidences of ragging in educational institutions in the country, ordered implementation of a ragging prevention program comprising, inter-alia, setting up toll-free anti-ragging helpline /call center, database of institutions/students, engaging an independent non-government agency.
Pursuant to these directions, the government has taken various measures, which includes regulation by UGC to curb ragging and similar regulations by other regulatory bodies, set up toll-free anti-ragging helpline/call center.
The database has to be created out of the affidavits affirmed by students/parents, and to be stored electronically. Such database shall also function as a record of complaint received and the action taken.
The web portal is a term being used for all background software development that is necessary for smooth functioning of the Ragging Prevention Program and comprises of the following components:
